300K Kilometers? yes , I forgot to mention miles in post #5 that's the scale.
I would require proof on 300K miles on just routine maintenance, The EGR recall is not routine so that alone! knocks out just about every 3.0s on OEM.
My Policy for My 2015 Loaded Laramie 3.0DSL Vs My 2019 Limited 5.7 was 22.00 Per Month less.
I agree the 1996 12V DSL bolted to the 47RE was problematic. That's why I and 10s of 1000s owner modded 47/48re's almost immediately after Purchase, at low cost for the life of ownership, Heck most...
BL2020, Your not alone, Many Owners have replace the power plant VM3.0 3 Times 2014-18.
Its this simple, their are Hero's and Zero's VM 3.0 nothing in-between.
In long term ownership in OEM, it will suck up your wallet. Why not just by 2500 Cummins and be done with it.
I bleed DSL but these...
Its work for just about everything, it fast, durable. The range is well over 100FT, I sit in My office and mange options when the vehicle(s) is/are outside in the driveway.

AI , I have never tried it on ED, Have change changed Tire and pinion ratio in other Rams with Alfa. Its available in WITECH options and generally ALFA has the same ability as WITECH. WITECH has Key, sales code, options, Flash changes ALFA does not.
Marcxs, You still have this over 3 months later? Members If you own the 3.0VM you need to consider this, Its Pre AEM and and not available today.
I understand this is ECM with Pre AEM tuning, Just Buy Alfa/MX and program VIN and Gear-R.
Just use caution when removing /installing read up on the...
I have 4 Point leveling on My 2019 Limited and the 2015 Laramie loaded also had 4 point Leveling, the ride was the same, the Hemi is more fun to drive and the Avg MPG 17/20 70-80MPH 3.21, the ED was 20/22 3.92 same speeds, The MPG advantage the 3.0VM once had is gone in the New 2019+ Gas...
We'll that's what I did, I take it your in CA? Your looking at 3K US Parts/Labor. If you do a search You will find once the emission CELs start it $1000s in eventual repairs.
GY, How did you put the fire out? We have confirmed 1 owner emptied two extinguisher's with Garden hose and the ED burned completely including the tires.
Its simple.... marketing. Their were 0 VM 3.0 Ecodiesels sold NEW in N/A for over to 14 months 2016-17. Most 2017-18 were leftovers 2017s
I'm not aware of any VM 3.0 ED manufactured in 2019.
Their's just not enough sales 20-21 to even consider the ratio VS 2014-16.
Caterpillar, Cummins...
Hmmmm, I would Not count on seeing it until Jan/Feb 2022.... VIN #s no longer have any bearing, 1000s of owners had their orders cancel on 2500/3500 back in March 2021 after receiving VIN #s.
As far as I know Ram HAS NOT STOCK PILED 1/2 tons like Ford has its 1/2 ton. Its likely Ford will...
